Answer #1

a) The lens should put the image of an object at infinity at the persons far point of 88 cm. the distance is negative

we have from the lens equation,

b) to find the near point with lens in place, we find the object distance to form an image 26 cm in front of the eye.

In order to see objects at different distances clearly, a person's eyes must be able to adjust the focal length of their lenses. If person can't achieve the full range of focal lengths, they will require corrective lenses to have "normal" vision. The corrective lenses in glasses usually sit about 2cm from a person's eyes. Part A: Someone who is nearsighted cannot see clear images of objects far away. One such person is unable to see things further than 5...

The uncorrected eye. For the following questions, assume that the distance between the eye lens and the retina is 1.70 cm. In other words, since the image is always formed on the retina, the distance between the lens and the image is always 1.70 cm. Also note that, as is seen in the ray diagram, since the eye lens is converging and the image is on the opposite side of the lens compared to the object, the image is always...
